Can a Manager at Accenture request an analyst to be fired? My manger doesn’t do anything and puts all the pressure on me. He once told me that he can request for me to get fired. Please help!

Oh lord. This sounds like a toxic situation. I would talk to your performance manager about this. They can technically move you to another engagement but this just doesn’t sound like a good situation in general and you should lean on your performance manager to manage up

Agree this managers behavior constitutes an HR violation, OP, document this in case they turn on you. With it documented, the company will think twice before they do anything to you, as it means potential lawsuit

Involve your career counselor! And try to get the threat on tape to avoid a he-said-she-said situation, unless you already have the threat in email format. The manager might say you are just misinterpreting feedback. Maybe use a voice recorder app on your phone. This way, if the manager denies it, you have proof, and the manager's credibility is shot.

HR email - start drafting

🤣that’s a ridiculous statement. If she/he has the proof then they cannot stand up for shit.

Raise to your counselor /and leadership.

Second D1’s comment. Talk to your career counselor on this - moving to the next project might just do the trick. I see plenty of analysts who don’t do well on one project but totally rock on the next engagement.

Talk to your cc and talk to your HR. I had something similar and I got rolled off the project within three weeks. Accenture is pretty good like that.

If that manager is your CC you can request to have your CC changed. You can even find your own CC by finding someone you gel with, get their ok and inform hr.

To answer your question, no manager does not have the power to fire you. Even your cc don't have the power to fire you. But they can give you bad feedback at performance review and eventually it gets bad enough. But still really hard to fire someone that's chargeable.

The week of my wedding, my husband (PL SQL Developer 4 yoe) was laid off. That was a couple of weeks ago. Luckily I'm still bringing money in as a software engineer, but I'm looking for advice on how to support a partner who has been laid off. Ultimately I think we will be ok, but I know he's hurting / stressed / and could use a supportive partner.

Layoffs. Most big firms say they're sitting on a conservative pile of cash - which I believe is true - but work will obviously not return to pre-COVID levels in the short term, probably not even in the medium term. Are Biglaw layoffs coming?

Hi all, I have a question regarding retirement accounts. I am not sure if I should choose a Roth or 401k (company has 4+2% match). Currently 23, base salary is ~100k and investments have brought 45k this year which has me teetering between a 22-24% tax bracket. Wondering what the usual tax bracket is of people retired (around 65yo) as I’m not sure anything would bring in significant income with the exception of investments. In my case would a Roth make sense? Appreciate any answers!!
